Knygos aprašymas

[Read by Don Hagen]

The Elements of Eloquence highlights the importance of style in an age unhealthily obsessed with the power of substance.

From classic poetry to pop lyrics, Charles Dickens to Dolly Parton, and even Jesus to James Bond, Mark Forsyth explains the secrets that make a phrase - such as ''O Captain! my Captain!'' or ''To be, or not to be'' - memorable.

In his inimitably entertaining and wonderfully witty style, Forsyth takes apart famous phrases and shows how you too can write like Shakespeare or quip like Oscar Wilde. Whether you're aiming to achieve literary immortality or just hoping to deliver the perfect one-liner, The Elements of Eloquence proves that you don't need to have anything important to say - you simply need to say it well.
